Carers Rights Day 2025

Carers Rights Day takes place on 20 November this year. The theme is ‘know your rights, use your rights’.

If you look after someone, find out more about your rights as a carer, and what support is available in Northumberland at the Carers Rights Day event at Berwick Leisure Centre, 1.30pm – 4.00pm on Thursday 20 November.

Dozens of organisations and service providers will be there ready to chat to you about what is on offer to unpaid carers across the county and provide information on knowing your rights.

Just some of the organisations include Northumberland County Council, Mind, Northumberland Recovery College, Healthwatch Northumberland, Macmillan, Brainbox, Age UK Northumberland, Escape Family Support, and Well Up North.

If you can’t make the event, you can contact the Carers Northumberland team who can help you find the information you need.

You can get involved in Carers Rights Day 2025 by sharing your story of being an unpaid carer, raising awareness or holding your own event. Find out more at Carers UK.
